How to Update D5200 via RS-232 Serial Interface

[#1]

Issue

How are the handlers on the D5200 updated from programmer to programmer?

Solution

One D5200 is the "Sending Programmer" of handlers and records, and the second D5200 is the "Receiving Programmer". Connect the two programmers together (RS-232 port to RS-232 port) with a D5204 cable (2 feet long).

SENDING PROGRAMMER - RS-232

1. Scroll to UPDATE in the Product Handlers menu using the red down or up keys, and press the red ENTER GROUP key.
2. Use the red down key to scroll down to the MODE prompt. To transfer a handler from internal DISK A: Press the SPACE bar until the A->RS232 selection is displayed. To transfer a handler from removable RAM DISK B: Press the SPACE bar until the B->RS232 selection is displayed.
3. Press the white ENTER key. The message WAITING for Handler Request... is displayed. When the handler request from the Receiving Programmer is detected, the Sending Programmer transfers the requested handler. The progress of the handler transmission is displayed. If the transfer is successful, the message UPDATE SUCCESSFUL is displayed. If the transfer is not successful, the message UPDATE FAILURE is displayed. The cursor returns to the UPDATE menu.
4. To update additional handlers, repeat steps 2 and 3. To return to the Product Handlers level, press the red EXIT GROUP key.

RECEIVING PROGRAMMER - RS-232

1. Scroll to UPDATE in the Product Handlers menu using the red down or up keys, and press the red ENTER GROUP key.
2. Type the handlers name (i.e. 7112) at the Handler prompt, and press the white ENTER key. The cursor moves down to the INCLUDE HELP prompt.
3. The INCLUDE HELP entry defaults to NO.
